question for any webmasters or anyone with knowledge of webpages

I'm simply putting up a gallery of pics on my website, which is consisted of frames. I have thumbnails of 8 pics, and upon clicking them, I want them to open in the main frame. I've done this by selecting the _self target for each link to each picture.

The only problem is that my site is designed through with a solid black background. When the pic opens to a bigger version in the main frame, the background is white. How can I specify for the background to be black? I don't know if I can since I'm linking to the picture directly, and I don't want to have to create a sperate page for each pic just to specify background color. Thanks.

iirc a picture will always have a white background whenever you click on it to open it. You could use a thumbnail generator and have it use a black background for each

If you are opening a non html file (.zip, .jpg, .txt, etc), the background will always be white.

Try making the target a popup.

Ohhh, a popup....I like. Ummmm, how do I do that? 🙂

<A HREF="" ONCLICK="window.open('URL', 'popup', 'toolbar=no,location=no,directories=no, status=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=no,copyhistory=no,width=450,height=350'); return false;">

All the rest of that (after 'URL') is customizable options.
